Probably waited a little too late t open this but, but we’re just rednecks from East Tennessee. Fruit is still present but not overwhelming. Complexity is waning. Caramel notes predominate.

Held up well--tannins totally resolved now. Not a fruit bomb by any means but red fruit characteristics still strongly present with some interesting typical zin secondary characteristics. Went well with steak--enjoyed thoroughly. The long lay-down had very little detrimental effect on the wine

Just drank it and held up great. Lots of cherry spice, medium bodied with fluid pallet. Yum.

Very smooth, restrained, and balanced. Not too big and hot. Nice flavors.

Robust; lots of fruit; nice finish. Excellent with some Manchego cheese.
